Chapter 52: The Struggle in Each Dark Corner

  Chapter Fifty-two Various Undercurrent Struggles

  Wu Zhenxing impatiently pushed away Miss Jiao, "Hurry up and leave, don't bother me"

  "You spineless turtle egg, even if you kneel down and beg me, I won't bother with you again!" The young lady felt her face was lost, and in anger, she stormed off. As she passed by An Qi'er, she deliberately let out a loud snort at her, then swayed her small waist and walked away with a toss of her head.

  An Qi'er walked to Wu Zhenxing's side, sneering at the cosmetics on the counter.

  "Wu Zhenxing pointed at An Qi'er with a furious expression, 'Are you still not satisfied? You want to torment me until I'm dead, only then will you be content!'"

  "It's not that I want to torment you, but it's you yourself who is not making an effort. Don't you have any realization at all? Think about your father Wu Dong, he has aged a lot worrying about you." An Qi'er was also furious facing Wu Zhen Xing.

  "Alright, don't mention him again! You all say it's for my own good, but you always force me to do things I don't like. My life doesn't need you to take charge of it, I'm an adult and can be responsible for my own actions!" Wu Zhenxing slammed his hand on the cabinet in anger, glaring at An Qi'er.

  An Qi'er didn't get angry, but instead stared straight at Wu Zhenxing. The hidden ferocity in her eyes made Wu Zhenxing's heart feel empty. "Very well, since you said that, then you should pay off your debts and not rely on Director Wu to help you out anymore. You're not working hard here, but instead spending all day flirting with those women and giving them free drinks? Are you trying to get them drunk and take advantage of them?"

  "But I don't like doing this job, I studied management" Wu Zhenxing retorted in discontent.

  An Qi'er thought for a moment and then asked: "Then what kind of work do you like to do?"

  Wu Zhenxing replied, "What's the point of being a model worker if you can't even get a decent meal?"

  "Good at flattering, that's true." An Qi'er rolled her eyes at Wu Zhenxing, "What's most important for you now is to boost this month's sales, don't forget your main job."

  "Hey, can you understand what I'm saying? I'm not suitable for being a salesperson. Look at this brand's counter, which one uses male salespeople? I'm applying to be transferred back, otherwise, just fire me!" Wu Zhenxing crossed his arms, refusing to budge.

  An Qi'er also replied readily, "Alright then, you can leave now and don't have to come back to the company for work."

  "Are you really saying that?" Wu Zhenxing asked again with a skeptical attitude.

  "Of course I will keep my promise and never go back on my word," An Qi'er had made up her mind.

  Wu Zhenxing took advantage of the cheap sale and said, "This is what you said, don't come crying to my family's old master later. With someone as shortsighted as you, this young master doesn't even want to cooperate with you anymore, it's a waste of time."

  An Qi'er looked at Wu Zhenxing as if he had escaped from a sea of suffering, walking with a floating feeling that made him want to fly, and couldn't help but shake his head with a smile. He turned around to face Wu Keqiang, who had a rather unpleasant expression on his face, and asked in puzzlement: "Director An, are you really determined to let Zhenxing resign? Don't you plan to cultivate Zhenxing anymore?"

  An Qi'er hastily explained: "He has been protected by you and Wu Bo from working in any company other than the Wu family's, if he is so disobedient, it would be better to let him go out and suffer a loss, then he can also calculate his own worth."

  Wu Keqiang listened and remembered it in his heart, thinking that the words made sense, so he quickly apologized to An Qi'er, "An Zong, I'm sorry, my temper was too urgent, I wrongly blamed you"

  "This is human nature, I can understand" An Qi'er said with a faint smile

  "Loti, this time you have to help me, otherwise I really don't know what to do." Luo Hongwei cried and sniffled, holding onto Loti's hand, afraid she would run away.

  Le Di frowned and glared at her, "I've told you before, with your design level, you can't achieve anything great. Moreover, the work that made you a top designer back then was actually designed by a ghostwriter."

  Lu Hongwei's face was trained by Leti to be green and purple, although she hated Leti for pointing out her own unbearable pain, but still had to put on a smile, half of which was coquettishly begging: "Okay, I beg you not to mention those things that can't be seen again. Now, Caixiang's place is definitely not going back, I beg you to help me ask Duan Ruiqi for mercy, and give me a job at Ruien to survive."

  "This is all your own fault" Ledi still felt that scolding was not enough, she pulled her hand out of Luo Hongwei's grasp, with a hint of wanting to draw a clear line.

  Lu Hongwei didn't get angry, still smiling, and took the opportunity to squeeze out some tears, "Letti, considering our many years of good friendship, can you help me? I invested all my money in stocks and lost everything. Are you really willing to let me sell my car and house and become homeless?"

  Letti listened and couldn't bear it either, looking at Luo Hongwei's tearful eyes that were red and swollen for a long time. She sighed with difficulty, "What do you want to do?"

  Lu Hongwei took the opportunity to say: "Le Di, anyway, you've been on guard against those secretaries around Duan Ruiqi all these years. Why not plant me by his side and make me your informant? I can report his situation to you at any time. After all, we're family, you should trust me the most."

  Letti heard some heart movement, but still hesitated to say: "Although we are friends, how can I see if you have any unseemly thoughts about my brother Duan?"

  "Le Ti, if you don't trust anyone else, you should at least trust me. I've known Duan Rui Qi for many years, when have you ever seen us get along? Besides, I'm divorced and have a daughter, how could Duan Rui Qi possibly be interested in me? You can suspect others, but not me!" Luo Hong Wei suppressed the anger that Le Ti had stirred up inside her, thinking to herself "just wait and see, Le Ti, you're treating me like this today, I'll pay you back double someday".

  Letti smiled contentedly and nodded in agreement, "You're right." Then she said reassuringly, "Hongwei, don't worry, we're all good friends, I'll definitely help you with this."

  "Come on, let's sit over here," said Mr. Zhou, pointing to the bamboo chairs by the window.

  "En, okay." An Qi'er sat down across from President Zhou.

  While glancing down at the restaurant below, Le Ti noticed An Qi'er on the second floor of the teahouse across the street. Taking another look, she saw that the person sitting across from An Qi'er was Zhou Zong, the operating director of Lian Suo City. She couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth in satisfaction, thinking to herself "Heaven is really helping me".

  "What are you looking at?" Lu Hongwei curiously followed Lettie's line of sight and looked over, "How, do you know them?"

  "It's not just acquaintance, that woman is a thorn in my flesh, but this thorn will soon be ruthlessly pulled out by me" A good idea suddenly popped into Letty's mind.

  An Qi'er returned from the bathroom and bumped into Leti, seeing Leti's pale and disheveled appearance, she worriedly supported Leti and asked: "Leti, what happened to you?"

  Le Di covered her chest with a pained expression and said with difficulty: "Qī ér, my chest hurts so much, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on. Can you help me back to the Golden Crystal Hotel across the street? I booked a room there."

  "Letti, you're in so much pain, you should go to the hospital, I'll take you to the hospital"

  "No, no, no, Qi'er, I have medicine in my room to treat this chest pain, it's an old illness, taking the medicine won't make me better, just take me back home, please" Ledi was in so much pain she wanted to cry, tightly grasping Qi'er's arm.

  An Qi'er couldn't bear to see her like this, so he nodded vigorously and agreed, "I'll take you back now."

  "Excuse me, are you Mr. Zhou?" Luo Hongwei appeared before Director Zhou with a polite and courteous demeanor.

  "Yes, miss, I am Zhou Zong. What can I do for you?"

  "This is it," said Luo Hongwei, taking out a key from her bag. "Miss An Qi'er asked me to give this to you. She said it would be more convenient to talk there, and she has long admired you, waiting for this opportunity for a long time. She hopes you can give her this chance."

  Lu Hongwei said with restraint, but in Zhou's ears, it sounded like a tempting and pleasant tone. He happily grasped the room key and thanked Lu Hongwei: "Thank you, miss. We'll be in touch when we have time." Then he hastily left to keep his appointment.

  Lu Hongwei smiled as she watched Zhou Zong hurry away, muttering to herself: "Hmph, no matter how refined he looks on the surface, he's just a lustful scoundrel."

  "Here it is," Ledi panted, pointing at the door number.

  An Qi'er took out the key from Lettie's bag and opened the door, carefully supporting her, then asked: "Where is the medicine?"

  Letti casually said, "It's okay, you don't need to look for it. I'll just put it under my pillow and take care of it myself." As she took out the medicine that had been switched with calcium tablets, she secretly patted herself on the back for her cleverness, feeling fortunate that she had prepared everything in advance in her room.

  After Letty swallowed two, her complexion indeed improved a lot. She gratefully grasped An Qi'er's hand, "Qi'er, thank you, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have known what to do."

  "Come on, don't say that, what's most important is your health."

  At this time, Letty's phone rang, she quickly answered it, nodded and quickly hung up. She said to An Qi'er: "Qi'er, something urgent came up at the company and I need to go back immediately. You stay here and enjoy the service on my behalf. There's also a fireworks BBQ tonight, make sure to savor it, this place is really great."

  "Le Ti, I must hurry too, I still have customers waiting for me at the tea house." An Qi'er was originally thinking of bidding farewell to Le Ti.

  "Lei'er, don't waste my good intentions anymore. I have to hurry up and go. That's it, contact me again when you're free, bye!" Lei'er said all this in one breath and then ran away quickly, making An Qi'er sigh that the effect of this medicine was really great.
